+ Multiple vulnerabilities were found in glibc, amongst others the
+ widely-known recent LD_AUDIT and $ORIGIN issues. For further
+ information please consult the CVE entries referenced below.

+ </description>
+ <impact type="high">
+ <p>
+ A local attacker could execute arbitrary code as root, cause a Denial
+ of Service, or gain privileges. Additionally, a user-assisted remote
+ attacker could cause the execution of arbitrary code, and a
+ context-dependent attacker could cause a Denial of Service.
+ </p>
+ </impact>
+ <workaround>
+ <p>
+ There is no known workaround at this time.
+ </p>
+ </workaround>
+ <resolution>
+ <p>
+ All GNU C library users should upgrade to the latest version:
+ </p>
+ <code>
+ # emerge --sync
+ # emerge --ask --oneshot --verbose "&gt;=sys-libs/glibc-2.11.2-r3"</code>
